The maximum power is dissipated for an ac in a/an

The maximum power is dissipated for an ac in a/an

Options

  1. AInductive circuit
  2. BCapacitive circuit
  3. CResistive circuit
  4. DLC circuit

Correct answer

C. Resistive circuit

Step-by-step solution

P=Vms Imscos⁡ϕP=V_{\text{ms }} I_{\mathrm{ms}} \cos \phi In purely resistive circuit voltage and current are in same phase therefore phase difference is zero. So, cos⁡ϕ=1∴\cos \phi=1 \therefore Power dissipated is maximum.
